About Syllotips Imagine AI agents that continuously learn from a company's top employees. At Syllotips, we transform undocumented expertise into dynamic, ever-adapting AI, bridging the gap between human know-how and enterprise systems.

Sebbene l'esperienza professionale e le qualifiche siano fondamentali per questo ruolo, si assicuri di verificare di possedere le soft skill preferenziali, se richieste, prima di candidarsi.
Founded in Rome in 2023 by AI PhDs and veterans from Amazon, Google, TheFork, and Translated, Syllotips has been accelerated by Techstars and is part of the Harvard Innovation Labs.
Our human-in-the-loop technology is already trusted by leading companies in telecom, insurance, and financial services to improve customer support and sales.
Today, Syllotips is a team of 25 people and growing quickly. As we enter our next stage of growth, we're looking for exceptional people who can help us build the processes and organisation needed to scale.
The Role We're looking for a Business Operations Associate to join the COO Office, reporting directly to our COO.
You will help manage the activities that keep Syllotips running and enable the company to scale. Your work will span business operations, finance, recruiting, people processes, contracts, grants, company planning, and internal workflows.
This is a highly hands-on role. In the same week, you might coordinate candidates and external advisors, check invoices and contracts, prepare an OKR meeting, support a strategic project, or automate a recurring process.
We're looking for someone who combines sharp thinking with strong execution. This is not a purely strategic position: you should be willing to understand processes in detail, run them reliably, and then find smarter ways to improve them.
What You'll Do Support the COO on company-wide priorities and cross-functional projects.
Coordinate recurring operational activities, deadlines,



documentation, and external stakeholders.
Support finance, recruiting, People Operations, contracts, grants, and public procurement.
Help manage company OKRs, planning cycles, internal meetings, and retreats.
Identify inefficient or unclear processes and turn them into simple, repeatable workflows.
Use AI, no-code tools, and automations to reduce manual work.
Take ownership of new or urgent operational problems and drive them to completion.
Who You Are You have 2–4 years of experience, ideally in an early-stage startup as a Founder Associate, Business Operations Associate, Operations Specialist, or in another cross-functional role.
You hold a degree in Economics, Finance, Management Engineering, Business Administration, or a related discipline.
You are bright, curious, highly organised, and quick to understand unfamiliar problems.
You have an entrepreneurial mindset: you don't just identify problems or follow instructions—you actively find and implement solutions.
You understand startup life: priorities change, responsibilities evolve, and no task is beneath you when it helps the company move forward.
You are reliable, attentive to detail, and able to manage multiple priorities independently.
You are AI-savvy and regularly use AI tools for research, analysis, productivity, or automation.
You are confident with Excel or Google Sheets and communicate fluently in Italian and English.
You are discreet and comfortable handling sensitive financial,



legal, and employee information.
Nice to Have Experience with Notion, n8n, Zapier, or similar tools.
Experience working directly with founders or senior leadership.
Familiarity with startup finance, recruiting, contracts, grants, or public procurement.
What We Offer Full-time employment
Annual gross salary: €28k–€35k, depending on experience
Performance premio and access to the Syllotips Stock Option Plan
85% remote work from the EU, with regular monthly three-day sessions in Rome
Direct exposure to the COO, founders, and company-wide decisions
High ownership and the opportunity to build processes with an immediate impact
A chance to shape the company from an early stage: joining Syllotips now means helping define the processes, standards, and ways of working that will support the company as it grows. You won't just step into an existing structure—you'll help build it and become one of the people the organisation relies on.
A clear growth path toward a Business Operations Manager role
Syllotips is a well-funded startup built by an exceptionally talented team. You will learn quickly, take on meaningful responsibility, and see the concrete impact of your work across the entire company.
Interview Process Candidate Survey: Selected candidates will receive a short survey about their experience, motivation, and approach to work. The survey is an integral part of the interview process and will be used to assess fit for the role.
